Potato Bake

Hubba wanted to cook a roast on his new Weber barbecue tonight so I thought a potato bake would be the perfect accompaniment. The only problem...I've never cooked a potato bake before! So I put the call out on Facebook and Twitter and six lovely ladies came to my rescue with six different recipes! I particularly liked this recipe from Sass. But I ended up putting the ideas together to make my own version. It had to be very plain because I was attempting to entice my 8yo Mr Fussy into trying something new. This is what I came up with...


The bad news is Mr Fussy wouldn't even try it.
The good news is Hubba loved it! And so did I!!

Serves 4

Get This -

6 potatoes
300mL cream
1/4 cup milk
1 tablespoon plain flour
salt
cheese

Do This -
  1. Preheat oven to 180degC.
  2. Peel and slice the potatoes.
  3. Place in the bottom of an oven proof dish and sprinkle generously with salt.
  4. Whisk together the cream, milk and flour.
  5. Pour over the potatoes.
  6. Cover with alfoil and bake for 40 minutes.
  7. Remove the alfoil, sprinkle with grated cheese and bake uncovered on 200degC for a further 20 minutes.
